66 and 99! The quotation marks of course!
We have worked at using quotation marks in our writing, and now we are also looking at how they are used in our reading as well. They are not always used to show that someone is speaking. Although not as catchy as the Apostrophe Song, here is a link to a Quotation Song. I encourage you to dance and sing along!

I am currently marking the math quizzes from today and they will go home this weekend to be looked over, signed and brought back. It looks like we need some more work in a few areas:
- memorizing multiplication facts to 9 x 9
- understanding what division means
- knowing division facts to 81 divided by 9 because we know how the inverse relationship between multiplication and division - a.k.a the fact families
- knowing the distributive property of multiplication (our Break it Down! method)
- explaining our thinking (but we're getting better!)
